Feature and Follow Friday

Feature and Follow Friday is an awesome blog-hop hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read


This is a very exiting week for me as I am one of the Feature Friday Blogs!!! How cool is that? 

This week's other feature is  JoAnn @ The Fairy Tale Nerd and this week's question is:

What is the best book you've read in the last month? What is the worst book you've read in the last month?





Probably the best book I've read this month was The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. This book is so good that it will remain with me for a long time.




Don't get me wrong, I really love this series, but I was a little disappointed by Goddess Interrupted, the second installment in the Goddess Test series.

How about you?  What your favorite and not so favorite reads this past month?

  1. I have yet to read both of these books. I'm always really disappointed when a read I've been waiting for / had high hopes for doesn't live up to my expectations.

  31. Congrats on being the feature this week! I hear so many good things about the new John Green book. I really need to read it. I haven't read the other series yet, but I'll agree with the fact that a lot of the 2nd books in series lately have been kind of disappointing.

  38. I love, love, loved The Fault in Our Stars! One of the best books I've ever read in my life. I cried while laughing. Such a strange concept.

    I can't wait to read Goddess Interrupted. Not many people like series, but I really just want to read it for the play on Greek mythology.

  43. Hi Liza! I'm glad you enjoyed The Fault In Our Stars--I want to read it so badly! For some reason the second book in a series is sometimes a serious let-down, and apparently this was the case for the Goddess Test series. Hopefully the next book will make up for it!

    Congrats on being featured on Feature Friday!! New follower. =)
